r lalith sahasranmam stthram


(introduction)
By Sri P.R. Ramachander
The r lalith sahasranma sttra (hymn which praises) occurs in Brahmnda purna (Old epic of
the universe) in a chapter which entails a record of the discussion between Hayagreeva and
Agasthya Munivar. Hayagreeva is an incarnation of Vishnu with the horse head and is believed to
be the storehouse of knowledge. Agasthya is one of the great sages of yore who is one of the stars
of the constellation - great bear. At Agasthya's request, Hayagreeva taught him the most holy 1000
names of Lalitha.
Parama shiva is one of the trinity of Hindu pantheons who is in charge of destruction. He married
Sakthi , the daughter of Daksha. Daksha and Paramashiva were not getting on well and
consequently Daksha did not invite Paramashiva for one of the great fire sacrifices that he
conducted. However, Sakthi went to attend the function in spite of Paramashivas protest. When
Daksha insulted her husband (Siva) Sakthi jumped in to the fire and ended her life. Consequently,
at the behest of Paramashiva, Daksha was killed and later given life with a goats head. However
this incident upset Paramashiva and he entered into deep meditation. Sathi took another birth as
the daughter of the mountain (Parvathy) Himalayas and started doing penance on Shiva for getting
him as her husband. During this time, the devas faced a very great enemy in Sura Padma who had
a boon that he could be killed only by a son of Shiva and Parvathy. So to wake Shiva from his
deep meditation the devas deputed Manmatha, the God of Love to shoot his flower arrows at
Paramashiva. Paramashiva woke up and opened his third eye and burnt the God of love into ashes.
The Devas and Rathi Devi (the wife of Manmatha) requested Paramashiva to give life to
Manmatha. Heeding for their request, Paramashiva stared at the ashes of Manmatha. From the
ashes came Bhandasura - who made all the world as impotent and ruled from the city called
Shonitha pura. Bhandasura started troubling the devas.The devas then sought the advice of Sage
Narada who advised them to conduct a fire sacrifice. From the fire rose Sri Lalitha Tripura
Sundari.

She was extremely beautiful, having: dark thick long hair with the scent of Champaka,
Asoka and Punnaga flowers; a musk thilaka on her forehead; eyelids, which appeared
as if it is the gate of the house of God of love; eyes, which were like fish playing in
the beauteous lake of her face; a nose with studs, which shined more than the stars;
ears with sun and moon as studs; cheeks, which were like mirror of Padmaraga;
beautiful rows of white teeth, chewing thamboola with camphor; a voice sweeter than
the sound emanating from Veena of Sarswathi; a beautiful smile that Lord Shiva
himself could not take his eyes off; neck adorned with mangalya soothra and
necklaces with beautiful shining dollars; breasts, which were capable of buying the
invaluable love of Kameswara; a row of faint beautiful hair raising from her belly; a
stomach with three pretty folds; a body wearing red silk tied with a string with red
bells; thighs, which steal the heart of Kameshwara; knees, which looked like crowns
made of precious gems; voluptuous legs; upper part of the feet resembling the back of
tortoise; feet, which resembled the lamps made of gems which could dispel worries
from the mind of devotees, and skin with golden red colour. She was given in
marriage to Lord Kameshwara and made to stay in Sree Nagara at the top of Maha
Meru Mountain.
Sree nagara had 25 streets circling it. They are made of iron, steel, copper, lead, alloy
made of five metals, silver, gold, the white Pushpa raga stone, the red Padmaraga
stone, Onyx, diamond, Vaidoorya, Indra neela (topaz), pearl, Marakatha, coral, nine
gems and mixture of gems and precious stones. In the eighth street was the forest of
Kadambas. This is presided by Syamala. In the fifteenth street live the Ashta Digh
palakas. In the sixteenth, lives Varahi alias Dandini who is her commander in chief.
Here Syamala also has a house. In the seventeenth street live the different Yoginis. In
the eighteenth street lives Maha Vishnu. In the nineteenth street lives Esana, in the
twentieth Thara Devi, twenty first Varuni , the twenty second Kurukulla who presides
over the fort of pride, twenty third Marthanda Bhairawa, twenty fourth the moon and
twenty fifth Manmatha presiding over the forest of love. In the center of Srinagara is
the Maha Padma Vana (The great lotus forest) and within it the Chintamani Griha
(The house of holy thought). In its north east is the Chid agni kunda and on both sides
of its eastern gate are the houses of Manthrini and Dhandini. On its four gates stand
the Chaduramnaya gods for watch and ward. And within it is the Sri chakra. In the

center of Sri Chakra on the throne of Pancha brahmas on the Bindu Peeta (dot plank) called
sarvanandamaya (universal happiness) sits Maha Tripura Sundari.
In the Sri Chakra are the following decorations viz., the square called Trilokya mohanam (most
beautiful in the three worlds), the sixteen petalled lotus called Sarvasa paripoorakamb(fulfiller of
all desires), the eight petalled lotus called Sarvasamksopanamb(the all cleanser), the sixteen corner
figure called Sarva sowbagyamb(all luck), the external ten cornered figure called Sarvartha
sadhakam (giver of all assets), the internal ten cornered figure called Sarva raksha karam (All
protector), the eight cornered figure called Sarva roka haram (cure of all diseases), triangle called
Sarva siddhi pradam (giver of all powers) and the dot called Sarvananda mayam(all pleasures).
The devas prayed to her to kill Bhandasura. When she started for the war with Bandasura, she was
accompanied by the powers called anima, mahima etc, Brahmi, Kaumari, Vaishnavi, Varahi,
Mahendri, Chamundi, Maha Lakshmi, Nitya Devathas and Avarna Devathas who occupy the Sri
Chakra. While Sampatkari devi was the captain of the elephant regiment, Aswarooda devi was the
captain of the cavalry. The army was commanded by Dhandini riding on the Charriot called Giri
Chakra assisted by Manthrini riding on the chariot called Geya Chakra. Jwala malini protected the
army by creating a fire ring around it. ParaShakthi rode in the center on the chariot of Sri Chakra.
Nithya Devi destroyed a large chunk of Bandasuras armies, Bala Devi killed the son of
Bandasura, and Manthrini and Dhandini killed his brothers called Vishanga and Vishukra.
When the Asuras created blockade for the marching army, Sri Lalitha Tripura sundari created
Ganesha with the help of Kameshwara to remove the blockade. Then Bandasura created the asuras
called Hiranyaksha, Hiranya Kasipu and Ravana. The Devi created the ten avatars of Vishnu and
destroyed them. She killed all his army using Pasupathastra and killed him with Kameshwarasthra.
The gods then praised her. She then recreated Manmatha for the good of the world. This story is
contained in the first 84 names of the first 34 slokas of Lalitha Sahasra nama and all together
contains one thousand names. This is also called the Rahasya Nama Sahasra (the thousand secret
names). Reading it, meditating on the meaning of the names, would lead to the fulfillment of all
the wishes of the devotees.

English meaning courtesy of Sri P.R. Ramachander

[Unlike Vishnu Sahasranamam, where phala sruthi is the part of the stotra, in the case of Laitha
Sahasranama, phala sruthi is the next chapter and separate from it. So it is not recited along with
the thousand names of Lalitha. It is as per the desire of a devotee that I am translating this great
work, which occurs in Markandeya Purana. It was taught by Sage Markandeya to Sage
Agasthya.]

* Should be chanted daily after worshipping of Lalitha.

* There is no prayer similar to this one,


* Which would give pleasures and salvation, Oh sage,
* For men by singing these thousand names,
* Would get both pleasures as well as salvation.

* Better than the thousand names of Shiva are the names of the Devi,
* And Oh Agasthya, the thousand names of Devi are one crore times better.

* In all the four stages of life (4 Stages Baalyam , Youvanam , Grahasthashramam ,

* And all these are praise worthy (The names are: Ganga, Gayathri, Syamala,
Lakshmi, Kali, Bala, Lalitha, Rajarajeswari, Saraswathi and Bhavani.)

Even if the names of other Gods are sung in crores of births,


It is equal only to singing of the thousand names with devotion.

Forsaking the thousand names and trying to get occult powers,


Is like satiating hunger after forsaking all meals.

* If you become at your last birth an Upasaka of Sri Vidhya,


* By reading the thousand names, this birth would become your last.

That devotee who sings these names of Lalitha Devi,


Need not sing any other for she will be pleased,
Only by singing of this even for hundreds of eons.

* In this world it is rare to find Upasakas of Sri Vidhya,


* And it is also rare to find those who read the secret thousand names.

* These thousand names are to be read for making the mother happy,
* But this prayer which I told is a secret, Oh sage Agasthya.

Chanting the king of chants followed by worship of Sri Chakra,


And reading the thousand names gets the same result as doing Austerity (Thapas)

* The learned in Vedas, if they do not recite these names at least once,
* The Sri Vidhya would be kept secret from them, Oh sage.

* Without reading these thousand names and trying to please the Goddess,

* People who do not tell this prayer are like animals,


* If they give Sri Vidhya to the foolish without this prayer.

* The Yogis would be very angry with them,
* For this would lead them to problems,
* And that is why these secret thousand names,
* Are kept as great secret from every one.

Thus ends the telling of effect of reciting Lalitha Sahasra Namam


Called The portion after,
Which is in Brahmanda Purana in the Uthara Kanda,
In the discussion between Sage Hayagreeva and Sage Agasthya.

* Of Sage Agasthya, I would not have told them to you independently.

After telling thus, sage Hayagreeva meditated on Goddess Lalitha,
Was drowned in happiness and became enraptured.
